Telecomix internet activity group and Anonymous hacker group are reported to make serious efforts in building again emergency internet infrastructure at Egypt by building internet point access itself and benefitting telephone cable line abroad.

As quoted from Forbes, since Thursday night local time, it is indeed so Egypt blockaded internet access from their four of biggest internet providers (ISO): Link Egypt, Vodafone/ Raya, Telecom Egypt, and Etisalat Misr.

Moreover, not only internet connection, Egypt also blockade SMS service at its country. The case is done by government, because all this time, opposition group benefits social site to do communication and coordination in performing their actions.

As the consequence, some activists of Egypt today benefits amateur radio to communicate each others. “Internet does not function, police car is burned out. This day remark festal day for Egypt’s history,” said an Egypt citizen who uses Morse code through amateur radio.

But, minimal until now, cable telephone network at Egypt still can function. On that ground, Anonymous hacker group has sufficient time to send WikiLeaks’ leaked documents about atrocity and brutality of Hosni Mubarak regime via fax mail, to schools at Egypt.

They accumulate fax-mail number database of companies and schools at Egypt by way to seek it at Google search engine. And what is more, Telecomix also monitors amateur radio line, to build communication with local opposition communities.

“We stand behind small citizenry who are fighting to against their government. We believe, people need to see propriety, because today majority of Egypt’s Internet are offline until public can not access this vital information,” said one of source from Anonymous team.

Previously, Anonymous hacker is known as hacker team that helps secret leaking site Wikileaks and does attack onto parties what are considered becoming enemy for Wikileaks, such as PaypPal, Visa, or MasterCard.

Before Egypt government blockades internet access, Anonymous also has a sufficient time to target attack Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) onto Egypt government sites, especially communication and information technology ministry of Egypt. (hs)
